1min trailer for AFTERLIFE: an AV performance from Harshini J. Karunaratne on Vimeo.
Popular during the 19th century, magic lantern phantasmagoria shows were spine-chilling theatrical experiences that utilized the pre-cinematic technology of the magic lantern, an early slide projector, to create the illusion that there were ghosts in the room. These technologies and performances anticipate video jockeying, a form of live performance that emerged in 1980s club culture, where visuals are remixed in realtime to heighten club atmosphere.
A joint Capstone in Film & New Media and Theater, 'Afterlife: an audiovisual performance' uses VJ and DJ techniques to reimagine a phantasmagoria show for the 21st century and investigate the concept of the afterlife as a state of intermediacy.
'Afterlife' ran from March 30th-31st 2018 at the NYUAD Arts Center as part of the NYUAD Theater Capstone Festival.
